Thanks Wayne, If you are doing this for the first time how many tubes should i buy do you think, like how many do you expect will be cracked or leaking. The car has 53,000 and i'm pretty sure it's never had the plugs replaced, I've had it since 31,000 mile.

It's hard to say - I think they are cheap enough that it makes sense to just buy a set of six, and then use them as you see fit?

Do it right once. Replace all 6 plugs, plug tubes, and both tube O-rings.

I have a special tool I fabricated to remove the tubes with absolutely zero damage......don't even need to pull the spark plug :-)
Considering manufacturing them.....how many people would be interested?
